I'm trying to find out if there's a way to get suitable 1080 60i footage from my GH2 into Premiere to feed into Twixtor without dropping to 720p. I'll be looking to drop the frame rate to 24, preferably progressive, for further slow motion by Twixtor. As I understand it, GH2 shoots 1080 60i. I've shot a clip in 60i, but both Premiere and Media Player Classic report it as being 29.97 and interlaced. Consequently I don't know how to get to the 60 frames in Premiere. I can de-interlace the footage but it stays at 29.97fps.
So three questions basically. 1. Is there a way to get Premiere to recognize and deinterlace the 60 frames and turn it into 24p footage? 2. Do I even need to deinterlace for Twixtor? 3. Avixdemux recognized the footage as 60i, and I've seen posts where people use third-party software to deinterlace. Is Premiere not a good tool for this job?
Thanks very much for any help.
